Had a wonderful time, the hospitality was just great, I could not wish for nicer people, Swan is absolutely gorgeous and the countryside is to die for. If I had one reservation it would be: I HAD TO GO HOME!

What a beautiful boat - very luxurious. Had a great time 'learning the ropes' and building train tracks! Visited some lovely places, enjoyed wandering up to the bakery for breakfast. Wonderful food, fantastics sunsets. Thanks for being brilliant hosts.We'll be back next year.

What can we say? Just had the most fantastic week on Swan, probably the most relaxing holiday we have ever had. Everything was perfect. Nickie and Andrew made us feel very welcome and Maisy was an absolute sweetie. We will be back for more!

Dear and Andrew and Nickie, thank-you so much for our wonderful week on board the Swan. We very much enjoyed our journey along the Canal du Nivernais; visiting the local towns and vineyards, helping at the locks and meeting the locals! The barge was extremely well equipped and the food was excellent. Thank-you, we hope to see you again next year.

Thank you again for your hospitality on such short notice. You should be very proud of your marvelous boat. I really love every thing about her.

I spent a week on Swan in July. The weather was excellent, accommodation first class, the Crew attentive and the sights beautiful. I thoroughly enjoyed participating in ship board life, cycling next to the barge as it floated down the canals and of course exploring the odd French village and restaurant. Can't wait for my next visit. Debbie Greasley from South Africa

My sister Vanessa & I had a wonderful time cruising on the beautiful barge Swan in July. The journey from Briare to Never was picturesque and all the people we met along the way were very friendly & hospitable. It was so relaxing to cruise along and visit the historic towns & villages. We've come away with many happy memories of a great holiday & hope to enjoy another cruise in future. Best wishes & good luck, Jessica.

The photos bring back great memories of the wonderful time we had on "The Swan!" We hope to revisit some time soon.

Love the website - very interesting and informative! Spent a couple of nights on Swan last summer - very luxurious and comfortable.
